Accessibility for education institutions

Benetech Accessibility Services for Education (BASE) helps educational institutions like schools and universities create more inclusive learning environments. With over 25 years of digital accessibility expertise, we provide technical assistance, training, and resources to help educational institutions understand the provisions of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and ensure that all students receive equal opportunities to learn in ways that work for them.

Why ADA compliance matters

As an educational institution, ensuring accessibility for all students, staff, and visitors is a legal requirement under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Title II mandates that public schools provide equal access to their programs, services, and activities. Non-compliance can lead to severe legal litigation, not to mention a negative impact on your community’s trust. And with recent updates to Title II, school districts have a limited time to comply.
